Description
The trailhead for 1.5 mile long Holland Falls National Recreation Trail starts at the end of Holland Lake Road. At the start of TR 416. At almost a mile the trail starts to climb at a steady grade up rocky slopes. A little further along you will come to a footbridge. Hiking another couple hundred yards up the trail, along the mountainside, you come to some rock outcropping. Hearing the falls now, you only hike a little a short distance before seeing Holland Falls. Keep following the creek up to Upper Holland Lake.
